Actor Lorenzo Lamas (“Renegade”, “Falcon Crest”, “The Bold And The Beautiful”, etc) built his first chopper back in 1979. Since then he always wanted to put his stamp on custom motorcycle designs. Then he met Custom Builder Ralph Randolph of Knockout Motorcycles, and they decided to start together Lorenzo Cycles to build quality limited edition models with a “Wild West Vibe”. quality” and timeless design
Together, they plan to build only 40 limited edition customs a year using only S&S Twin Cam motors and Avon Tires. During the Sturgis Rally they will introduce and ride in the Black Hills 2 of their limited edition models, the “Reno Rocket” based on a US Choppers frame with a 113” engine and Baker transmission, and the “Bomber” built on a Chopper Guys frame with a 124” motor and Harley transmission. The 2 partners of Lorenzo Cycles will be personal guests of Rod Woodruff at the Buffalo Chip on Monday August 3rd, will ride their custom bikes in the Mayor’s Ride and the Legends Ride.

pricing? Personally I have mixed emotions about guys like Lorenzo and Tyler starting these companies. In one way,it is good to see something positive happening in this economy. I am curious as to rideability for the bobber and prostreet style bikes.

The bikes look nice but let’s see what their price points are. I am not sure Lorenzo has the star power to carry a product line of motorcycles. I thnk there are few other builders/celebs that have tried this and failed. But good luck.

Hell, give it a shot. Will the actual bikes measure up to the artist renderings? Who knows, I’m just glad to see there are still folks out there willing to enter the market instead of disappearing from it. Good luck guys!

Okay then, Good Luck Lorenzo.
In keeping with the post of actors and motorcycles, at this time I would like to let everybody know that the cop show “Southland” is the best series currently running. The new season started Friday and that’s when it airs. Finally something decent to watch, that’s very well written with fast moving, contemporary lingo and a least one of the cops is a drunk (drinks on the job) and a racist. He caught a well deserved bullet last episode, but should recover by next Friday.
I know a writer from the series, who told me that there’s going to be an M/C gang episode (to pull some viewership away from “Sons of Anarchy”).
He said it’s your typical meth-lab and Harley episode, but the meth-heads are scary-sacks like we’ve never seen and a lot of people get blown apart.
“Southland” is doing what “NY P.D. Blue” (with Sippowicz) used to do. They feature different bizarre characters in each episode. Fun season ahead, on Fridays, CBS.

I think whatever will keep People making Financial moves forward are great for the MC Biz. I think if they are only 40K that would a bargain ! Look at Jessie really getting 70K + for His name on a 40K Bike ! Go Lorenzo go. He is even better looking than Jessie !

Oh great…one more company to bail out later down the road or one more company to screw over our vendors and jack up our prices when they fail and leave the vendors without payment…good call, but Lorenzo has a hott daughter, Shayne Lorenzo, none the less.

What’s the fuss (IT’S ALL ‘GOOD’)…Skilled rider/average actor teams up with skilled builder to manufacture a limited series of choppers…I can’t believe this is upsetting the balance of the Universe for some of you nice folks. Sooooo why so many ‘sour grapes’ responses??? Is there some committee of Pharisees, a priesthood of bikers and builders Lorenzo and Eddie need to get permission from to build bikes? Actually building a series of choppers that can be ridden along the backroad twisties & switchbacks will attract a large part of the ‘Metric’ market…My guess is a lot of ‘Silicon Valley’ Yuppies will buy these bikes…PEACE/RIDE SAFE

Shame on all of you.I think, any man that is trying to make a go at it in todays economy,should get all the support they need.A lot of people like bikes.Why so many skeptics.Sounds like he’s grouped together with good team.From Eddie Trotta,to all the major investors and sponsorship,Good Luck in your endeavor.
